hello, I am absolutely new, means from non-IT sector but have attraction (developed recently) towards linux and have chosen the centos distro for the installation as an OS in my home PC for personal use. I went to the page: http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/5/isos/i386/ But don't understand amongst the variety of options there. I also don't know the technical terms like md5, etc....,
You can ignore md5 for now - they are just for verifying that the file you've downloaded has not been modified.
can one directly give me the link for down loadable Cent OS 5.5 (which is latest) and better if it is the torrent download. I guess there would be only one file of .iso format which is to be burned and installed.
A DVD will be one image (file) and easier than x-of-n CDs.
